About this study

Official title: Preoperative Breast Irradiation, the PROBI Trial. A Phase I/II Feasibility Trial

The PROBI is a phase I/II trial assessing the feasibility of preoperative whole breast irradiation in female patients with low to intermediate risk breast cancer, who undergo breast conserving therapy, including a boost dose of irradiation.

An additional goal of this study is to assess tumor response to radiotherapy, by imaging modalities (PET-CT and MRI) and pathology

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Postoperative surgical complications

    postoperative complication will be scored by a specific list

    Measured: within six weeks after surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Radiological response

    assessed by MRI

    Measured: 6 weeks post-radiation

  2. Pathological response

    surgery specimen

    Measured: at surgery

  3. cosmetic outcome

    cosmesis will be scored by physician by questionnaire and cosmesis will be cored by patient by questionnaire

    Measured: 1,3 and 5 years post-treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing pre-operative irradiation in people with Breast Cancer, run by The Netherlands Cancer Institute at 1 site in Netherlands.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: slow inclusion rate). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Postoperative surgical complications (time frame: within six weeks after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02941835, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Oct 2019.
